Re: Receiving EINPROGRESS on NBCONNECT

Thanks Brad.
I am using his XASOCKET service program.
It turns out that when that condition occurs, he *does* do a select to wait
until the connection is established, but the routine did not reset the
ERRNO field, so when I saw that in my program, I thought I needed to handle
it.
I set ERRNO to ZERO in the service program before the select, and all is
good now.

Thanks.

Jeff,

There is a time you can set on the select() call. Once past that time,
select() will fail with a timeout.

Scott K's examples should show how to use this function.

I have an RPGLE Socket handling program that is attempting to connect to

remote server in Non Blocked mode.
The connect fails with a return of EINPROGRESS.
From my search on this condition, it appears that I need to do a select

to

wait for the socket to become readable.
How do I do this and not wait forever (ie: time out after a defined time
interval)?
